Horses prepare for stardom in Beijing

Normand Latourelle, co-founder of the Montreal-based Cirque du Soleil, has dreamed of coming to China since childhood.

"I once asked my mother: 'How can I get to China.' She said: 'Dig a hole in the kitchen, and you will be there at the end of it'," Latourelle recalls.

Decades later, he has not just arrived in China but also brought his 30 horses, who are the stars of Latourelle's brainchild - the multimedia spectacular, Cavalia.
